Chapter 2.

"That was nice". "Having everybody over". Kuki said, coming into the bedroom with her silk robe, and lacy black bra on. "It was dandy". Wally said, with his orange shirt still on. Wally. His quirkiness, his charm, his effervescence. It truly was sexy. "yes, and, I do believe they are good friends, with what they care about the kids". "they are nice, but, I think you and I, are stronger than they'll ever be". "yeah, I think so". Kuki's vagina was now soaking her in tingling fuzz, as it felt like it dropped with the amount of attraction she had towards Wally. Wally could not get any harder. They inched closer, and closer, drawing near to one another. Wally got closer to Kuki, lightly touching her stomach, as Kuki wrapped her arms around Wally's neck. Closer, closer, closer, and closer they got, until their lips touched. Kissing erratically, Wally curled his lips around Kuki's, leaning in, more and more. Soon, his tongue came in, wandering about her mouth, until it curled around her tongue.

Her tongue curled around his, as the two curled around one another, battling for dominance. Wrapping his tongue around her tongue, Wally kept curling, pushing her tongue back, as hers remained curled. Back, back, and farther back it went, as some fluids fell out the side of his mouth, into her mouth. Kuki felt a rush of saliva come in that wasn't hers. It was Wally's. the fluid turned a bright white color, as it felt like foam was crowding her mouth. Continuing to push back more fluid, a fuzzy feeling, the feeling of Juicy Drop Pop, came to Kuki's mouth. "you're the one I love". Wally said in a deep, guttural voice. "you're perfect". Kuki said, airily, trying to catch enough breath to make her statement. As they continued kissing, Kuki felt a hand on her back, slowly slide it's way up, unhooking her bra, as her silk robe fell to the floor. Kissing her with ecstasy, a zipper was heard, as Wally unbuttoned his pants, lowering his underwear, as his penis was out, finding its way to Kuki's vagina, which was out, as he lowered her lacy panties.

Grabbing her, he kissed her with ecstasy as Kuki felt a tingly feeling near her vagina. The tingly feeling got much more firm as the kissing continued. Wrapping her arms around him, she kissed him, as he laid her down on the bed, brushing the sheets. Sliding in just so, Wally's penis became harder, and harder, as it slid, pressing into Kuki's vagina with ease. The feeling was deep, the feeling was real. As they lay in their embrace, the love they felt was deep, and true. It had been from day 1 when they met one another in Kindergarten. Now, the embrace became tighter, as they remained inseparable, unable to let go. Kuki felt the penis dig deeper, and deeper, as her and Wally were locked in a kiss. She felt a fuzzy feeling overtake her, a tingly feeling that became so fuzzy, so tight, and so…white she couldn't let it go. She felt it everywhere; her mouth, her vagina, and her stomach, as it twisted, and turned. One side came to another side, as the room felt it was spinning. Wally's penis got hard, no longer easily pressing against Kuki's vagina. Now it drilled inward. Quicker, quicker, and quicker as it pushed with haste against Kuki's vagina which had loosened, and was now willing to let others in. A milky white fluid surrounded Kuki as she felt a sharp point nestled in her vagina, tighten, then loosen, tighten, then loosen. Wally kissed her lips, as she seemed to bathe in the milky white foam of the champagne. It was all of the luxuries Wally had given her, or them. She held the cherry in her mouth, as Wally kissed up her breasts, biting the cherry.

The tingling feeling returned as now it felt like a hard rock, covered in skin, tightened, then loosened around her vagina. The room seemed to begin spinning again, as Kuki gasped for air. Wally kept pressing, firmly against Kuki's vagina, as she gasped, breathily. Going in, he kissed her, as their lips separated. Kuki kissed him with ecstasy, as she felt the tingling all over her body, they joined in again, as Wally pushed his penis inward. The milky white substance surrounded them, as Kuki stretched her arms. "f^^^". Wally whispered into her ear, as Kuki burst into laughter, her legs kicking upward. Kick, and kick, and kick and kick and kick. "f^^^ you". She then laid seductively on the bed, as Wally kissed up her stomach. They continued kissing, as Wally pressed his penis further, and further into her vagina. Further, and further it went, as Kuki this time, felt a bit of fuzz, although not as much as last time. Dismounting, Wally's penis came upwards, as a Milky White substance surrounded them, foaming like milk. Kuki kissed Wally, jumping into his arms, as it felt as if they were drowning in foam. It bubbled, soaked, and absorbed, as Kuki pressed it back with her hands. She continued kissing Wally as their penises touched. Nothing came out, though. No milky white. They continued kissing, as the silk sheets rustled. As they kissed, they whispered, scandalously.

"mmm, who will be there for them?". "prrssst". "prrrssst". The sheets rustled. "I don't know". "we would". "they've been deprived". "who will care for her?". "take care of her?". "I don't know". "this is F^^^". "yeah, you're f^^^^". "what time do you have?". "I don't know, you?". "I don't know". They continued kissing, and whispering scandalously, as they sinned. Kuki's stomach began twisting, and turning, rapidly, as she kissed. Her stomach felt…weird. Although no weirder than it did when she began kissing Wally. She felt perfect with Wally. How he owned this body. Smoked his cigarette, had sex. He was absolutely amazing. he F^^^ed her like he was protecting his throne. He was her king, she was his queen, they fit so well. near each other is where they dwelled. Kuki laid under Wally's big, brawn arm as he put an arm around her. They sat, enjoying each other's company. Outside, Ira came wrapped in a blanket, as she looked over at their door. She felt tormented by another tremor, and needed her medicine. Looking over at the door, she saw it was closed, as she tried to open it, seeing there was one of Kuki's ribbons on the door. "Kuki". She said, worried. "kuki". She said again. there was still no answer.

Going into the kitchen, she tried finding her own medicine. It had to be there somewhere. Looking underneath potato chip bags, and Cheez It boxes, she finally found it on the counter. Taking one pill, she drank her milk. Kuki and Wally. Wally and Kuki. Why wouldn't they answer her call? Where they sleeping, and didn't want to be disturbed? Ira looked downward, sighing. She then went into Nalana's room, as Nalana was playing. "Iwa". Nalana pronounced. "hi". Ira said. "um, I don't know what Kuki and Wally are doing, but, is it ok if I read you a story?". Ira asked. As she carried Ivanov into the room, she set him down on Nalana's bed. "ok, um…". "This is the angel book". She said, taking out Ivanov's angel book Cree had gotten him after he came to the US. The book was about guardian angels, and god, and how he always was there, protecting them. Ivanov noised, pointing to the angel on the front of the book. He loved church, god, angels, and worshipping. It gave him hope for a better tomorrow. He also knew his birth family was always there, looking after him.

"ok, um…angels are here, angels are there, angels are everywhere". Ira read, showing Ivanov, and Nalana the pictures. Usually Kuki and Wally read to them, sang them a song, did "I love you" kisses, and stroked them to sleep, while putting their stars that hung on their ceiling, on. "Angels are near, angels are never far, angels are here for you". Ira showed Ivanov the pictures of the angels. "eee". "eee". Ivanov noised, pointing to the picture. "yeah, I guess". Ira said, turning the page. "whether wide awake, or fast asleep, your guardian angel is yours to keep". Ira then kept the book out so Ivanov could look at pictures. "ba da". "ba da". Nalana pointed. "I don't know what they're doing in there". "I guess they're tired, so they'll sleep". Ira said. "guys, I think we should go to sleep too". Ira said. "iwa". Nalana pronounced. "yeah, let's go to sleep". Ira said. Ira turned the T.V. on, as Nalana sat on her bed. "ju". "ju". Nalana pronounced. "I don't know". "I don't think you're allowed, because of your heart, and all". Ira said. "but, I guess tomorrow". Nalana sat in front of the T.V. as she played with her light up, Playskool dolphin. "doo doo, da da". Nalana pointed. "yeah, I'm kind of tired". Ira said. "ba da". Nalana pointed. "ee". Ivanov laid in the bed, as Nalana laid next to him. Ira laid at the other end of the bed.

The kids lay asleep, as the T.V. was kept on. The night was calm, the evening was fair, and a feeling of calm, respect, and true love filled the air. It was truly a night for the divine. The door opened softly as Kuki, followed by Wally came in. "hey, everyone". He said, gently. "hi". Kuki said, stroking a sleeping Ivanov's head. "hello". "we're sorry, we didn't read you angel book, or do goodnight kisses, I hope we're off the chain for that, but, we just wanted to say, goodnight". Wally said. "mm, yes, and to tell you that we love you". Kuki said, gently, stroking Nalana's face. "oh, you're so special, and amazing, and thoughtful, and strong". "you inspire us each and every single day". "we are so glad we saved you". "more like, you saved us". "each and every day, I am excited to see what I've learned from you". "you make us, us". Kuki said in a motherly, gentle, hum. "yes, and we know we haven't been there often, but, we'll make time for you, because you, are our best friends". Wally said. Ivanov turned in his sleep, as Kuki went to stroke his face. Ira turned over, as Wally gave her a kiss. "well, goodnight". Wally said. "we love you". "goodnight, we love you". Kuki whispered. The two made their way out, as Nalana opened her eyes to see Kuki. She pointed upward. "a ba". She said. "shhh, I know, baby". "nighty night time". Kuki said, kissing Nalana's face. The world was at peace, as everyone was finally asleep. This was nighttime. For the younger kids, it was the nighttime they had never experienced. Although it was done the right way.

"Ivanov". A gentle voice said, stroking his face. "it's time to wake up, baby". "it's time for breakfast". Ivanov opened his eyes, looking around. Noising, he pointed upward, as drool came down his cheek. "here, let's swallow". Kuki said, wiping the drool from his chin. "eee". "eeee". "eeee". Ivanov sat up, staring vacantly at the ceiling. The sound of "Big Nala, get down", was heard in the next room. "are you ready?". Kuki said, beginning to pick up Ivanov. "I can get him". Ira said. "oh, thank you". Kuki said. "can you take him to the kitchen?". "it is time for breakfast". "yeah, I can". Ira said. "Thank you, Ira". Kuki said. Ira had on her blue blazer, and flat shoes, as she took Ivanov into the kitchen. "I have a presentation to do for the honors program". Ira said. "it's about numeric devices found in periodicals". "oh, well that sounds interesting". Kuki said. "I hope it goes well". "thank you". Ira said. "we are very proud of you, and what you've accomplished". Kuki said. "you've worked very hard". "Thank you". Ira said. "oh, you are so…focused". Kuki sighed, as if she were fighting a fetish to Ira's success. It was similar to the older, seductive, woman in heels, and fishnet stockings, having a sexual fetish to Ira, and how inspiring, and innocent of a girl she was. "ohh, you're so take charge, and motivated". "soo inspiring". Kuki felt a fetish come on, as she sighed dreamily. It was obsessive love. "ok, um…thank you, I guess". Ira said.

Kuki sat down at the breakfast table, opening Ivanov's yogurt, getting ready to feed it to him. "are you ready?". Kuki said, giving him a spoonful of yogurt. "eeee". Ivanov noised, opening his mouth all the way. Spit came out as he opened it, he did this in order to be silly, and a bit disruptive. "Ivanov". Kuki said, a bit vexed. "it's time to swallow". "now is not the time to be silly". Ivanov swallowed, and did what he was supposed to. With a low IQ, it was common for Ivanov to be silly, sometimes, and have a low threshold for disruption, although he rarely did it. Kuki fed him a few more bites, before he stood up, and got his jacket on, ready for school. "Nalana". Kuki called out, "it's time to go to school". "da ba". Nalana pointed. The kids got their breakfast, and headed outside, in wait for the van to pick them up. "well, I must be off". Wally came by, kissing Kuki on the mouth. With their exchange, the relived the magical moments of last night. "goodbye, kiddos". Wally said, kissing Nalana and Ivanov.

Sitting down on the driveway, Ivanov played with his glowing color ball Marie gave him. "ba da". Nalana pointed, sitting down, and playing with the color ball as well. "eee". Ivanov rocked back and forth for stimulation, as he noised, looking for love. Looking for affection, and kindness somewhere. "Ivanov". Kuki said, taking Ivanov's hand. "it's time for a hug". "let's hug". Kuki helped Ivanov up, hugging him, giving him the attention he deserved.

The van pulled up, as it came into their driveway. Nalana looked up, innocently, as a scruffy, long bearded man came out of the van. It was Buck Tuddrussel. "a ba". She pointed. "hey kiddo". Buck said in a laid back, cool manner. "a ba". Nalana said. "hey". "Hey, comrade". He said, ruffling Ivanov's hair. "eee". Ivanov pointed to his color ball. "you want to take that with you?". Buck asked. Ivanov pointed to his ball, signing, "more". "alright, kiddo". Buck said, picking up the color ball. "we'll take it for some fun times". "you ready?". "eee". Ivanov turned his head, staring vacantly. "let's get ya buckled in, champ". Buck picked Ivanov up, placing him in the van, beside Nalana. "can you get in?". Buck asked. Nalana climbed in, all by herself. "good job, kiddo". Buck ruffled Nalana's hair. "so, how's things, Kuki?". Buck asked. "mmm, well, they're good". Kuki said. trying to hide the pleasure, and sexual intonate she had with Wally the night before. "hey, that's always good". Buck said. "whoa, is that a F^^^ey, I see there?". Buck asked. "well, yes". Kuki said. "it was amazing". "oh, it's cool". Buck said. "I haven't seen any action in 5 years". "lucky you". the two separated, as the kids from inside the van, stared on. "alright, 3:30 dropoff?". Buck asked. "yes". Kuki confirmed. Buck checked with her, as she looked at Nalana and Ivanov. "goodbye". "I'll see you later". Kuki said, kissing Nalana's forehead. "eee". "eee". "eee". Ivanov pointed. The door shut, as Kuki started off back into the house. Starting the van, Buck pulled out of the driveway. "ba da". Nalana said, playing with her color ball. buck turned around, as drool seeped down Ivanov's face. "hey, you guys ok back there?". Buck asked. "eeee". "eeee". "eeee". Ivanov noised, sucking in the drool that dripped down his chin. "that's it, swallow buddy". Buck said, getting a tissue from his glove compartment, wiping Ivanov's face. "alright, nice job, champ". The color ball played a little song, as blue, green, and purple glowed. Nalana giggled, watching it glow colors.

"What's that you got there?". Buck turned around, making sure Nalana was doing alright. "b aba". Nalana pointed. "That's a ball". Buck instructed. "cool". "da da". Nalana pointed. "yeah, it's pretty nice, isn't it?". Buck said, focusing on the road. They went down the hill past several houses, and neighborhoods, traveling downward to the main area, then up the intersection where businesses were. Going down the main intersection, they took the next right, onto a hidden road which led back to a modestly hidden area. Turning in, there was a playground below, and beside it, an orange building that was the school. "da ba". Nalana pointed. "alright, kiddos, we're here". "who's ready?". Buck said, pulling up to the entrance. Ivanov opened his mouth, staring vacantly into space, as he looked down at his hands, regarding them as if he saw them for the first time. As the van stopped, Ms. Dee Dee, or Ms. Dee, their classroom teacher, greeted them. "Hello!". She said in a bubbly manner, smiling. "good morning!". "how are you today?". "dee, dee". Nalana pronounced. "yay! Very good!". Dee Dee clapped her hands, kissing Nalana's cheek. "Are you ready to play with me today, Nalana?". She said, excitedly. Nalana gazed all around, staring vacantly. "Nalana". Dee Dee said in a singsong voice, redirecting her. "Are you ready to play, today?". "b aba". Nalana pointed. "p". "p". "p". Dee guided her through each syllable. "l". "l". "ay". "play". She instructed Nalana. "bay". Nalana pronounced. "very good". Dee Dee clapped her hands, kissing Nalana. "oh, I knew you could do it, baby". Dee Dee said, brushing Nalana's face, as Nalana giggled.

"alright, bud, you ready?". Buck said, unbuckling Ivanov from his car seat. "hello, my amazing big boy". Dee Dee said, holding Ivanov in her arms. "oh, how are you?". "good morning". She smiled. "oh, I am so excited to see you, my wonderful boy". "eee". "eee". "eee". Ivanov noised, opening his mouth, as if he were smiling. His teacher was someone he trusted, someone that he felt content with, besides Carl, his therapist, and his friends, Kuki and Wally. "alright, kiddos". "have a good day". Buck said. "love you both". Nalana giggled as Dee Dee tickled her chin. "Nalana, can you say, "Love you"?". Dee Dee said in a singsong voice. "say, Love you". Dee Dee said, smiling. "ba bu". Nalana pronounced. "yay!". "good job, Nalana". Dee Dee kissed Nalana's forehead. "I love you". Dee Dee said, in a calm, singsong hum. Nalana turned her head, unable to keep attention for a particular moment. Under her jacket, Nalana had on her pajamas. "boo, boo, boo, I love you". Dee Dee booped, Ivanov's nose, as he noised, turning his head. "Aww, you don't like that?". Dee Dee stroked Ivanov's face. Ivanov did not like direct affection, or touch, as he never got any in the orphanage, and he was traumatized by hurtful touch. "eee!". Ivanov noised, concerned. "shh, it's ok, we'll sing another song". Dee Dee said. "I know, my American boy". Dee Dee smiled. "take me on a trip, I'd like to go someday". "take me to New York, I'd love to see LA". Ivanov opened his mouth, turning his head as Dee Dee sang. "aww, you love when I sing you, American boy". Dee Dee said. "you be my American Boy, American boy". "Ivanov noised, calming down a bit. "hello, Ivanov". Another teacher came outside, greeting Ivanov. It was Ms. Judy. "eeee". "eeee". "eeee". Ivanov noised. "good morning". Ms. Judy said, smiling. "Ivy, our friend, Ms. Judy came to see us this morning". Dee Dee said, excitedly. "eeee". "eeee". "eeee". Ivanov noised. "are you having a good morning, Ivanov?". Ms. Judy asked. Ivanov made another sucking noise, as he began playing with his fingers. "Ivanov". Ms. Judy said, as Ivanov lifted his head, responding to her voice. "good job, Ivanov". She smiled. "ba". Nalana said, playing with her color ball. "what did you bring to play today?". Dee Dee smiled. "ba". Nalana said. "is that a ball?". Dee Dee guided her. "ba". Nalana pointed. "ball". Dee Dee said, slowly. "ba". Nalana said. "ba, lll". "ball". Dee Dee helped Nalana pronounce. "ball". Nalana pronounced, although with strife. "yay!". "very good!". Dee Dee cheered, as Nalana pronounced her word correctly. "I am so proud of you, sweetie". Dee Dee said.

Another child who had been institutionalized, and internationally adopted, with Down Syndrome, came off of his van, Jacoby. "da!". Jacoby pointed upward, as his bus driver took him off of the bus. "Hello, Jacoby!". Dee Dee smiled, helping him off. "hello, good morning". "I love you". "ba ba b aba, ba". Jacoby pointed. Jacoby had little ears, a wide head, and small, almond shaped eyes. His sippy cup sat in his bag. Jacoby was the same age as Nalana. "I lo-ove you". "I lo-ove you". Dee Dee sang. Ivanov noised, lifting his fingers in the air, playing with them. "are you ready to go in?". Dee Dee smiled. "eee". Ivanov noised. "let's have some orange juice, are you ready?". "let's get some morning orange juice". Dee Dee said. Dee Dee holding Ivanov, along with Nalana, and Ms. Judy, holding Jacoby, walked into the school. Their classroom was a small, yet bright room, complete with a carpet for learning time, a kitchen area, and some beanbags for nap area. Other kids sat drinking orange juice, eating their cheerios, and taking their medications. A young girl, Rachel, sat spitting up her food, as a therapist gently taught her how to swallow. "ju". "ju". Nalana said, coming to the table. "do you want some juice?". Dee Dee asked. "yes". Nalana pronounced. "ok, let's have some juice, baby". Dee Dee poured some orange juice into a school sippy cup, as Nalana drank some. "eee". "eee". Ivanov noised, gazing upward.

"let's have some orange juice, Ivy". Dee Dee said, pouring some orange juice into an open cup for him. "Are you ready?". "let's swallow". Dee Dee helped Ivanov to pick up and hold his orange juice, as he drank some. He looked up at Dee Dee as he drank. "good job, drinking, sweetie". Dee Dee said. "let's get your medicine, too". Dee Dee said, going over to one of the nearby cabinets, taking out Ivanov's respiridone, and Alanser. "are you ready, baby?". Dee Dee asked. "eeee!". "eeee!". Ivanov noised a little concerned. He felt another tremor overtake him. "It's ok, honey, we're just going to swallow, that's it". Dee Dee said. "eeee!". Ivanov noised again, louder. "shhh, shhh, it's ok". Dee Dee lightly touched Ivanov's hands, singing to him, humming to him, softly. "I love you". "I love you". Ivanov felt tears come to his eyes, as Dee Dee kindly soothed him. "I love you, Ivy". She said, gently, as Ivanov began crying. "shh, shh, shh, it's ok". "let's take a break". Dee Dee picked Ivanov up, carrying him over to their fish tank, as they looked at the fish. Ivanov sniffled, as his shaking stopped. He began calming down as Dee Dee nuzzled him. immediately, before, he would react, although now, he felt as if he was being held, he was being cared for, he was being paid attention to. It was what his mom and dad used to do when they were still alive. The tolerance was there. "Eskimo kisses". Dee Dee smiled, nuzzling Ivanov. "eeee". "eeee". Ivanov noised, as he calmed down. "let's go take medicine". Dee Dee said. they went back to the table, as Dee Dee helped Ivanov swallow his medicine. It was in liquid form luckily. She helped Ivanov drink from the medicine cup, as Ivanov swallowed. Ivanov noised in disgust. "I know baby, it is yucky". Dee Dee said. "let's drink orange juice". She helped Ivanov drink from an open cup, as he swallowed his orange juice. A bit dribbled out of the side. "good job drinking orange juice baby". She said. Ivanov sat, staring at his hands, as Nalana played with her color ball. "the other students were either playing, or taking their medicine. Jacoby sat with his therapist, learning how to swallow.

"Nalana". Dee Dee said, happily. "are you ready for some orange juice?". "ju". "ju". Nalana pointed. "yes, juice!". Dee Dee chuckled. "let's go drink some". Nalana came over to the table, sitting down as Dee Dee got Nalana's sippy cup. Another child, Kirby sat as his therapist helped him drink orange juice. "Kirby, do you want more?". Dee Dee asked. Kirby made the "more" sign with his hands, as Dee Dee poured him some more into his sippy cup. Nalana giggled as her color ball glowed red, yellow, pink, green, blue. Rachel came over to see the color ball, as Nalana pressed the yellow sun icon. A nice jazz song played, as it glowed its colors. Rachel felt calmed, and felt as if she were more secure with the color ball. Even her heart rate slowed down. Rachel had escaped an abusive foster family when she was a year old. She often had flashbacks, and PTSD, as well as being severely delayed. She was still waiting for a forever family, although her current foster home was built on the fundamentals of peace, and love. Rachel felt peace when she was in her classroom. She felt a myriad of calm, soothing thoughts, and feelings rush into her, gently caressing her soul, and touching her heart. Ivanov pointed upward, gazing vacantly, as he opened his mouth. "what's up there?". Ms. Judy said, taking Ivanov into her lap.

"eee". Ivanov opened his mouth, then making sucking noises. "it's time to swallow, honey". Ms. Judy said, as Ivanov sucked in most of the drool that seeped down his chin. "let's push, honey, swallow". Ms. Judy said, gently, as Ivanov gazed vacantly at her. "swallow". Ms. Judy said in a gentle, singsong voice. Ivanov used his strength to push down the drool, as he swallowed. "Good job swallowing". Ms. Judy said. A man with a short sleeved shirt, and pens in the shirt pocket, khakis, and thick nerdy glasses, with heeled shoes came in. It was Mr. Carl, Ivanov's therapist. "hello, buddy". Carl said, smiling a bucktoothed Nerdy smile. "good morning, how are you?". "Ivanov". Ms. Judy said, gently. Ivanov looked up, responding to his name. "it's our friend, Mr. Carl". "he came to play with you, today". "eee". Ivanov noised, looking up at Carl, as he responded to Carl's presence. "hello, Ivanov". Carl said in a gentle, yet nerdy, nasally voice. "eee". Ivanov pointed. "Can I have a hug, buddy roo?". Carl chuckled, as his buck teeth looked prominent in his silly smile. Ivanov sat playing with his fingers, as he looked up at Carl. "Ivanov, let's hug". Carl said, gently. Ivanov noised a bit, going over to Carl, as Carl hugged him. "good job, hugging, fellow". Carl smiled again.

"So, before we play, let's get your medicine" Carl stood up, going over to the cabinet preparing the medicine Dulcanact, made to suppress day tremors, and PTSD flashbacks. He poured some liquid into a medicine cup, giving it to Ivanov. "alright buddy, let's get ready to rumble, here". Carl fed Ivanov the liquid, as Ivanov used his strength to push it down his throat, and swallow it. "good job swallowing, bud". Carl said, rubbing Ivanov's back. Ivanov made a gagging sound, as he noised concerned. "I know, that stuff is no fun". Carl said. "You did a great job swallowing it, though". Ivanov noised, pointing to his bottle. "were you drinking orange juice today?". Carl asked. "delicious". "I'll bet it was Simply orange". "you get a kick out of that". Ivanov made the "more" sign, as Carl patted his back. "We have to get you some silk milk soon". "you'd like it, it tastes relatively good". Ivanov drank from his bottle, as Carl ruffled his hair. Carl noticed a bruise on Ivanov's forehead, as Ivanov kept drinking. "That bruise from over in Russia never went away". Carl said. "we should have your pediatrician check it out". "mmm, it's a shame what happened over there, huh?". Ivanov kept drinking his bottle. "luckily, you're with your family that loves you". Carl smiled. "so, what would you like to play today?". "I've got a stuffed bunny rabbit". Carl took a stuffed bunny toy from his bag, as Ivanov held it close. It was the same bunny rabbit Nalana got from the orphanage. "eee". Ivanov noised, as Carl pressed it's paw, it played a little song. "yeah". Carl smiled. It might have been the day tremor retardant medication, but Ivanov suddenly felt content. He suddenly felt as if he were calm, and as if there were no more threats. His heart felt at ease, and no longer as if it were on high alert, or low depression, for now.

"alright, buddy". "yesterday, I went by the quickimart and bought you your favorite". Carl said. "Cheez Its". He pulled the little bag from his pocket. Ivanov laughed as the song from the bunny rabbit played again. "Let's have some Cheez Its buddy". "we'll work on our swallowing, it'll be fun". Carl said, taking a Cheez it from the red bag. Ivanov noised, taking the Cheez it, looking at it. "are you ready to eat?". Carl instructed. Ivanov picked it up, putting it in his mouth. "let's chew". Carl instructed, gently. Ivanov chewed, going down the Cheez It little by little. Soon some orange Cheez It sat on his chin. "are you ready to swallow?". Carl instructed. "swallow". Ivanov swallowed his Cheez It, pushing it down with his strength. "good job, buddy". Carl smiled. "I am so proud of you". "oh, well, we're all proud of you, and the progress you've been making". "you're such a good boy". Carl smiled, as Ivanov chewed his other Cheez It, and swallowed it. "good job, buddy". Carl said, tickling Ivanov's stomach. Ivanov laughed as Carl tickled. "do you want more?". Carl asked. Ivanov made the "more" sign, as Carl gave him another one. "you certainly like those Cheez Its". Carl grinned. "I knew they were your favorite, so I picked them up just for you". "so, are you ok, do you need more juice?". Ivanov signed, "more", as he looked over at the Cheez Its, noising. "we'll get some later, how about that?". Carl smiled. "does that sound like a plan?". Ivanov still noised, as he grew louder. "we'll have some later". Carl said, gently. Ivanov turned his head, looking down at his bunny.

"I know, I want some more too". Carl said. "I might have some Kale chips if you're willing to try those". "or some celery with hummus". "eee!". Ivanov noised. "I know, buddy". "we'll get some for lunch". "so, right now, we're going to practice feelings". "today, we'll learn a bit about sadness". "do you feel sad sometimes?". Carl asked. He then signed, "sad" to Ivanov. Ivanov noised, opening his mouth, as drool seeped down. "let's swallow". Carl said, as Ivanov sucked in the drool. "Good job, bud". Carl hugged Ivanov. "so, sadness, huh". "Sadness is what we feel when something bad happens". Ivanov noised, staring vacantly around the room. "you felt sad when mom and dad passed away". "I know it can be hard, sometimes, but, when we spend time with people we care about, we no longer feel sad". Carl said. Ivanov noised, crawling into Carl's lap, laying down. "I love you, bud". Carl smiled, rubbing Ivanov's back. Ivanov laid in Carl's lap, putting his fingers in his mouth. "here, let's not, do that". Carl got Ivanov's fingers out of his mouth. Ivanov and Carl were very compatible with one another as therapist, and client.

The rest of the kids' school day was therapy, naptime, and holding time. Later, as they got off the bus, Wally came in from his car, picking up Ivanov. Ivanov noised, standing on his own two feet, walking. Something he had learned to do with his therapist. "good job, mate". Wally kissed Ivanov's face, as Nalana giggled. "Kooks, did you see this?". Wally said, as Kuki came outside. "I did". Kuki said. "he's been making a lot of progress". "he is". Wally yawned. "did you bring back color toy?". Wally asked Nalana. "toy". He bent down, saying slowly. "ba da". Nalana said, pointing. "oh, I see it in her backpack". Wally said. "I have some carrots". Kuki said, gently, as Ivanov walked in with Nalana. "ba da". Nalana pointed. "carrots are good". Ira said, coming in. "how was your presentation, today?". Kuki asked. "It was really good". Ira said. "I think I might've won an award and had a grant from the panel of judges". "that's great, honey". Kuki smiled. "I'm so proud of you". "yeah, girlie". "ye doin some cool stuff, mate". Wally ruffled Ira's hair. "thank you". Ira said. "isn't he perfect?". Kuki swooned as Ira just played along. "yeah". Ira said, eating her carrots.

As everyone ate their dinner, Ivanov sat quietly, as his eyes welled up with tears. He didn't noise, he didn't move, he just sat there, silent, as drool dripped down his chin. "here, buddy, you want some?". Wally offered him a bite of a hotdog. Ivanov turned his head, batting it away with his hand. "eeee". He noised, as he kept batting the hotdog away. "buddy, why don't you want to eat the hotdog?". Wally asked, gently. Ivanov turned his head quickly, as he sat, tears rolling down his cheek. "eeeee!". He noised, crying loudly. "eeeee!". "eeeee!". He cried, as his eyes welled up with more tears. His face turned red. "what's wrong, buddy?". Wally asked, gently. Ivanov cried loudly, as tears welled up, now streaming down his cheek. "ooo eeee!". "oooo eeee!". Ivanov noised. "you want to talk to Kuki?". "ok, sir". Wally gently wiped Ivanov's face, as Ivanov still cried loudly.

"he's depressed". Kuki whispered as an aside. "he's remembering, and processing his treatment from the orphanage". "ooooo eeeee!". Ivanov noised again, crying loudly. "what's wrong, Ivanov?". Kuki said, gently, brushing his cheek. Ivanov ducked in fear, crying. "shhh, it's ok". "I'm here". "eeeeee!". Ivanov cried, as he stood up, walking around. It was good that he was standing up. "Ivanov". Kuki said, kindly. "you know I would never hurt you". "you're safe with me". "I know it's hard because everyone in the orphanage didn't treat you with respect". "you're not with them anymore". "they're all gone". "all gone". She signed. "I know you trusted them, and loved them, even though they betrayed you". "you don't have to worry about them anymore". "they're all gone". Kuki said, gently. "it's ok now". "eeeee!". Ivanov still cried, as Kuki took his hands in hers. "I love you". she said, smiling. "eeee!". He cried, loudly, batting her hands down. "It's ok, baby". Kuki said, kindly. "he doesn't think you do". Ira said, quietly.

"you can say one thing, and act one way, then you'll betray him, and look down on him the next time". "it's exactly what people used to do with me, because I had a disability". Ira looked down at her food. "did everything go ok today?". Kuki asked. "yeah, it was great, but, I have to wonder if my family even truly loves me". Sailor said quietly. "I feel like you guys don't because I don't have as high of an IQ as you do". "Everyone rejects me because of it". "sweetie". Kuki said, softly. "everyone loves you". "we admire you greatly, and know just how capable you are". "if anything, you've inspired us to become who we want to become, ourselves". Kuki took Ira's hands in hers. "you inspire me each, and every day". "if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have pursued my dream career of helping others". "why do you treat me as if I have a lower IQ?". Ira asked. "I feel like I have to be in fear all of the time, that someone will beat me, or someone will try and hurt me". "I know I'm dumb, you don't have to tiptoe around it". Ira said, as tears flowed down her cheek. "baby". Kuki said, softly. "You are a ton smarter than we will ever be". "You are a ton more successful as well". "you have such a high achievement quiery we are so proud of". "you have a higher IQ than me". Ira said. "why did you choose to be a therapist?". Kuki smiled. "I did it because I see people suffering, and feel bad for them". "I understand there might not be someone as embellished as I am, and I chose to be a Samaritan for them". "It's nice to see people succeed".

"I know". Ira said. there was a silence between them, as tears continued to pour down Ira's cheek. "why didn't you and Wally get married?". Kuki stroked Ira's cheek, as the tears continued to fall. "we decided to wait so we could well, kind of get back at my parents for being…oh, well, not that great". Kuki answered honestly. "why are you mad at your parents?". Ira asked. "They wanted me to be an executive assistant at an accounting firm, although I had plans of my own". Kuki said. "my mother is well respected, and very kind, although my father tends to be a bit…. Psycho". "after my father got out of the hospital, I decided to take my life into my own hands". "even if it meant being in love with Wally, and getting our own place". "I don't need any of them harassing me". Kuki said. "oh". Ira said. "but we love having you". Kuki said, kindly. "you have become a truly amazing person, who has inspired so many". "we have truly been inspired by you to become the best version of ourselves". "I know". Ira said. "you make us, us". Kuki said gently. "thank you". Ira said. "I know certain people in the past have often made you feel fearful, but, we're here to remind you that it's ok". "You do have a family". Kuki said. "I do". Ira said, as her tears still flowed down. "it'll be ok, sweetie". Kuki said. "I love you". "love you too". Ira said back, going into her room.

Ivanov still cried loudly, as he walked around. Nalana walked over to him, patting his back, as she tried pronouncing her words, "it's ok". Ivanov batted her away, as Kuki sat down with him. "ivanov". She said, softly. Ivanov still cried, loudly. "Ivanov, baby, it's ok". "I'm here". "I love you". Ivanov still cried, as he became aggressive with Kuki, hitting her. "we don't need to hit". Kuki said, placing Ivanov on her lap. "it'll be ok". "I'm here, and I love you". Kuki said, softly. Ivanov screamed, as he cried loudly. "shhh". "shhh". Kuki soothed, stroking his cheek. "eee!". Ivanov screamed. "eeeee!". His mouth began bubbling, as spit came out. Kuki continued stroking Ivanov's cheek, kissing it, as she blew in his face to calm him. Ivanov noised, as Kuki talked to him, softly. "we love you very much, Ivanov". "I know it's been hard for you, but, now you're with a new family that loves you, and wants peace for you". "eeee". Ivanov breathed heavily, calming himself down. "I have loved you since the day I met you". "you are my amazing, special boy". "I'm your guardian angel". Kuki smiled. Ivanov felt himself calming down a bit, as he breathed. Tears still welled up in his eyes, as he noised. "it's ok". Kuki smiled, as Ivanov breathed in a bit, sucking in the spit he once had outside. Ivanov was calming down, and now he felt the love, the tenderness, and the care derived from Kuki holding him. He felt somewhere, he did have a family, and she was right there in front of him. Ivanov laid in Kuki's lap, sniffling a bit, as his nose was stuffed from crying.

"eeee!". He noised. "eeee". "let's blow your nose". Kuki took out a tissue from her pocket, blowing Ivanov's nose. Ivanov sucked in more drool, as he laid, feeling comforted. "I love you, Ivanov". Kuki said, softly. "eeee". Ivanov pointed. "I know baby". Kuki stroked Ivanov's head, softly. Ivanov turned over in her lap. "I know". Kuki softly hummed. As she did, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach, that lingered for a while. Normal pains came for only a second, then left within a second's time. This stomach pain seemed to come, and stay for a long while, without interval. "ooo, I know". Kuki hunched over, feeling the deep pain, that snuck down from her stomach, to her uterus. Moving her legs seemed to hurt it more. "mmm, it's ok". Kuki said. at this point, Ivanov was asleep, as his head rested against Kuki's knee. The pain now ached upside Kuki's knee. "holy f-word". Kuki clenched, trying not to swear in front of one of her mentees. Ivanov breathed normally, as he laid, no longer frustrated. Kuki gently and slowly, picked Ivanov up, carrying him to the kitchen.

"Ivanov". She said, gently. Ivanov blinked awake, noising. "hi baby". "it's time to get your medicine, ok?". Ivanov laid his head against Kuki's shoulder, as she found his Alanser, pouring him a glass of cranberry juice. "swallow, ok?". Kuki said, softly. Ivanov picked up his glass, swallowing his cranberry juice, as Kuki helped him. pressing a finger down on his throat, she helped the pill go down. "good job, baby". She said. "are you ready for bed?". she asked. Ivanov laid his head down, as she brought him to his bedroom, setting him down on his bed. "eee". "eeee". Ivanov noised a bit. "I know you're tired, baby". Kuki said. "it'll be ok". "I'll be here if you need anything". "eee". Ivanov noised. "I know". Kuki said, stroking his head, softly. "I love you very much". "I am so glad we adopted you". "eeeee". Ivanov noised. "I know, your family was amazing before the accident". Kuki said, kindly. "they would hold you, and cuddle you". "you would help them". "you tried saving them all on your own". She sighed, tickling Ivanov's cheek, as his eyes closed. "you did such a wonderful job". "i love your heroism". "you are my good boy". Kuki kissed Ivanov's cheek, as he fell asleep, peacefully. His bear, and moon snow globe that played music sat nearby. Kuki pulled a blanket over Ivanov, leaving him to sleep.

Feeling the stomach pain again, she went into Ira's room, as Ira laid in her bed, holding a pillow. Here, she was ready to talk to Ira, like best friends, and not mentor to mentee, or teacher to student. "hey". Kuki said, sitting on the side of Ira's bed. "hi". Ira said, quietly, as tears streamed down her face. "I can see you're upset". Kuki stroked Ira, comforting her. "yeah, I just…I don't know if you truly love me or not". "I feel like, because I have a lower IQ, you'd look down on me". Ira said. "I don't". Kuki said. "everyone's different, and because of that, I think you're hugely successful". "you've won the Nobel prize which is significant, you've been canonized, you're in the honors program". "you've inspired me, personally to better myself". "oh, ok". Ira said. "do you think you'll ever get along with your parents?". Ira asked. "perhaps". Kuki said. "but then again, perhaps not". "fate will decide that one". Ira looked around, as Kuki's stomach pain intensified. "what about Mushi?". "do you get along with her?". Ira asked. "she's more attached to my parents than anything". Kuki said. "if she wants a diamond watch, she'll get a diamond watch". "although, she's had a budding love life". Kuki tried putting it in less inappropriate terms for Ira to understand. "she's had many relationships that have been very…explicit". Ira sat, as she knew Mushi, to be someone who did bad things with many men her age. Aside from Ira's thoughts, Mushi's sex life was budding. She could fit 3 balls in her mouth at a time while the man had an erection on top of her. Kuki often referred to her as , "hookerbutt".

"do you think Mushi will ever get married?". Ira asked. "she will date for a while, although, she'll marry at some point". Kuki replied. Ira sat, drinking her milk, as Kuki stroked her head. "I'm so happy you understand us". Kuki said. "we have been dysfunctional since the start". "yeah, I know". Ira said. "is Wally's family nice?". "they are, for the most part". Kuki said. "I haven't had a problem with them". "I try focusing on their family rather than mine, because my family is just, not". Kuki said, snidely. "at least they don't put pressure on him to conform". "yeah, I guess Wally's family doesn't favor Joey over Wally". Ira said. "true". Kuki said, tickling Ira's cheek. "you're so beautiful". Kuki smiled. "thank you". Ira said. "mmm, do you remember when we first met at Children's hospital?". Kuki smiled some more. "yeah, kind of". Ira said. "mmm, I told you I loved you, and you turned away". Kuki said. "yeah, I guess". Ira said. "I don't remember anything, really". "you were so young, and frail, you could hardly talk, or swallow; you didn't want to be held". "you got so scared of being there sometimes, you would cry". "you were at your beginning". Kuki said. "but you've improved so much over these past couple of years, I am so proud of you". "thank you for inspiring me". Kuki kissed Ira's cheek. Ira felt comfort, she hadn't felt in a while. Yes, it was from Kuki, although it was still comfort, nonetheless.

Kuki kissed Ira goodnight, as Ira laid down. "I love you". Kuki said. "you're still always my BF". "you are too". Ira said. "thank you, and, I love you too". Kuki stroked Ira's head, as she felt another sharp stomach pain fly down to her uterus. It was the kind of pain that wouldn't go away. "mmm". Kuki said, getting up from the bed. After reading to Nalana, and tucking her in, she went to the master bedroom, sitting on the side where Wally was. "I think we should possibly see about a new therapist for Ivanov". Wally said. "mmm, what's wrong with Carl?". "he's fun". Kuki said. "he knows what he's doing, but, I don't know". Wally said. "mmm, I like Carl". Kuki said. she felt the sharp stomach pain come on again, when she lifted her feet up. "those hot dogs were bad, I told you not to eat them". Wally said. "mmm, I don't know". Kuki said. "this stomach pain has been going on for days, and, for some reason, my period stopped". "oh, boy". Wally said. "that's weird". "yeah, it is". Kuki said. "you might be pregnant". Wally said, although, this had been blurted out. "what?". "I make stupid remarks all the time". "yeah, it would be pretty bad if I were pregnant". Kuki said. "yeah, well, you're not". Wally said. "right". Kuki nervously said, trying to get the thought of pregnancy out of her head, although to no avail. She couldn't help but wonder; could this be caused by pregnancy. Getting up from the bed, she went into the bathroom, pulling out a thermometer looking bandwidth, holding it underneath her vagina. Peeing on it, yes, she had to go, she cleaned it off, looking upward at it. What she saw, she smiled, knowing this was the perfect way to get back at her parents. Although, she just about, laughed at her own expense, of incompetence, and deviating sexual prowess. She saw a green plus sign.

"Wally". She said, as Wally got out of bed heading into the bedroom. "yeah?". He asked. "you might want to look at this". She said. Wally stumbled into the bathroom, looking down at Kuki's pregnancy test. "oh, my god". He said. "oh, my god". "are you serious?". He said. "well, it does say I'm pregnant, but, that's kind of weird". Kuki giggled. "kind of weird…we've had sex nine times in the last month". Wally said. "odds are it was bound to happen". "well, it happened to me". Kuki said. "hmm". Wally nodded. "you do realize your parents will be faming mad at this". He said. "I do now". Kuki said. "but I don't care". "#### them, right?". "right". Wally said. he was going to feel the warpath of Kuki's mother at some point anyways. "so we're having a baby". He said. "yes, we're having a baby". Kuki said, putting the pregnancy test aside. "oh, well, alright". Wally said, as Kuki got back into bed, kissing him. "I'm just not sure how we'll let Ira know". Kuki said. "she's a bit vulnerable right now". "yeah, but she's good, right?". Wally said. "she is, but, she's a bit…disabled". Kuki said. "she'll get it". Wally said. "you of all people should believe that". "I should". Kuki said. "we'll tell the kids later on, as well". "that, we'll do". Wally said. the two of them tried to fathom having a baby, and having Kuki's family approve. That wouldn't be as hard to, nah, it would. In fact, it would be hardest to.

The moon hung low in the sky, turning a blood red color, as only the dim light of the parking lot light near the essence of a broken down, old apartment complex, flickered. The parking lot was completely barren as the light flickered it's creepy air. Around it, certain women with tight jackets, and bongs wandered around, huffing. A girl with blue hair, a white skin tight bra, and glittery heels, Marie made her way through the cold. Smoking a joint, she made her way into a hole in the wall, bar where other women, wearing skin tight bras, made their way onto a stage. Marie looked over at a man with ruffled, silver hair, and an open shirt. "you've been here before, haven't you?". Marie asked in a deep, low, feminine, yet sexual register. "you don't know that". The man said, blowing smoke from his bong. "you have done numerous things". "all of which are wrong". Marie took off her skin tight bra, unhooking it. A zipper could be heard, as she unzipped her jeans, revealing only her glittery heels. The man pulled her in, as they laid down on an old, torn, tattered mattress, in a small room where the lightbulb flickered. Kissing each other with ecstasy, Marie felt the man's hand snake down near her vagina, as she felt something else snake down there as well. she felt the warm, heavy, bubbly, siemen filled penis come to light, pressing against her vagina as well. it pressed gently, as it withered, coming in slowly, and out quickly. The penis pressed, as his tongue pushed hers back. Feeling the siemen bubble over in her mouth, she felt the fuzzy feeling of white bubble down her body, as she felt as if she were bathing in champagne. Fuzzy, floating, and bubbling, as she continued feeling a white, fuzz trickle over her body.

Looking around, she saw she was naked, and the man had placed his balls in her mouth. Tasting each one, she sucked ravenously, as her and the man continued, for time, and time to come. Licking his penis, as he tasted her vagina, she felt even more siemen bubble over into her mouth. It was the time. The time to do harsh things, the time to indulge, for them both.
